The Maine Warden Service is asking for help finding who killed a bald eagle in early April in Days Academy Grant.
The body of a female, adult eagle was found April 15 on a logging road east of Moosehead Lake. A sportsman reported it to game wardens, according to a warden service statement. Game wardens collected the bald eagle and took it to Avian Haven in Freedom. An examination revealed it had been shot.
